    when you say "as a ______," you're labeling the pronoun that follows as the thing you're talking about. in this case, "as a 3rd party voter, you" implies that the person you're responding to is the 3rd party voter.

    While this is true, I guess it becomes clear in the context what they were talking about.

    I could equally argue that a vote for the Democrats is objectively the dumb and morrally wrong vote and nobody likes a grammer nazi.

    I got halfway through and stopped reading. Your post is substanceless and only furthers to stroke someones ego. Also, your only asking of that which you do not afford me as you have said as much. I don't see it your way.

    Nah, the Genocide in Gaza largely didn't motivate me. Otherwise I wouldn't have helped Joe Biden in 2020 by voting third party but instead I would have helped Joe Biden in 2020 by voting for him directly. I simply think Gaza was a good litmus test that helped stop a lot of other people from making the decision to actively support genocide. -Which is a pretty good reason. Just not mine. My case is this, Harris is and always was a terrible establishment-candidate.
